Personal Information we collect through our website
Personal identifiers and contacts (for example, name, phone and email address) provided by you in correspondence with
STEER.
Visitors to our websites
When someone visits STEER we use a third-party service, Google Analytics to collect standard internet log information and
details of visitor behaviour patterns. We do this to find out things such as the number of visitors to the various parts of the
site. GA makes use of cookies, details of which can be found on Google’s developer guides
Website Submission forms and STEER Demo request
The contact form and calendar booking link enables you to provide your contact name and email so that we can respond to your query and make an appointment or provide relevant information.
Where you complete a submission form, we may transfer your details to a marketing database so that we can keep you informed about developments in STEER education technologies and other news. We use a proprietary CRM provided by Sprint Education (Campus), Google WS as a cloud file storage software for marketing and for team collaboration and Setmore calendar integration for scheduling demos. Google rely on the EU/UK Model Contract Clauses for the international transfer of personal data outside
